Policies

Important!

International buyers may be charged for duties and fees by the customs agencies of the respective country. Nurture Soap does not impose these fees and does not gain financially from these fees. USPS in general charges duties and fees less often than UPS, although we cannot guarantee you will not be charged duties and fees by any courier.

Note: UPS Worldwide Services includes duties and fees to Canada under the following conditions: Free for up to five classification lines into Canada. Charges may apply for more complex customs clearance procedures. Please buy accordingly to avoid duties and fees with UPS Worldwide shipping options.

International Orders will be sent with signature confirmation and shipment insurance with the following exceptions:

Signature Confirmation mail is not available to APO/FPO or diplomatic addresses, or to locations in Palau, Micronesia, the Northern Mariana Islands or the Marshall Islands.

You will not need to purchase signature confirmation at checkout if you are shipping internationally. It is already added to your shipping cost with the exception of USPS First Class mail.

USPS First Class mail is the least expensive method to ship packages. Packages under 4 pounds may ship via First Class mail. However, once the package reaches our regional distribution center it will not be tracked until it reaches the destination country, and this can take weeks. You may see something like this in your tracking information: "Your item departed our USPS facility in CHICAGO IL INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION CENTER on July 8, 2019 at 2:27 pm. The item is currently in transit to the destination." This happens when the package has left the customs distribution center and has not yet entered your country. This process can take up to 6 weeks. Also, First Class mail is not insured and if it is lost cannot be recuperated. Therefore we cannot replace these types of packages.

We do not recommend using First Class mail as the method of shipment for international shipments. Preferred methods of shipment are USPS Priority mail or Priority Mail Express, DHL Express, or our several UPS worldwide shipment options.

We ship to every country in the world. Nurture Soap cannot be held responsible for lost packages or packages seized by customs. It is the buyer's responsibility to be aware of the specific import restrictions for their country.

Payments of duties and taxes for international shipments are the responsibility of the buyer. If you do not pickup your package for any reason and it is returned to Nurture Soap we will refund you after deducting the return shipping charges.

You may calculate shipping costs by adding the desired items to your cart and using the shipping calculator on the checkout page.

We cannot add to or change orders once placed. We do not keep records of payment information at the time of purchase for security reasons. If you forgot to order an item, you will need to place another order. Please review your order for accuracy before submission.

You will be sent an email confirmation when an order is placed on our site. When your order is shipped, you will receive a shipment confirmation email with a tracking number. Please be sure your email is correct when placing your order! We are not responsible for incorrect mailing or email addresses. We always ship to the address you give us and we always email to the address you give us.

Refunds and Returns

Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase we can’t offer a refund or exchange. To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging. Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Fragrance oils, colors, and all other cosmetic products cannot be returned due to sanitary reasons. To complete your return, we require a receipt or proof of purchase.

You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you may vary. If you are shipping an item over $75, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund. If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within a certain amount of days.

We do not charge a restocking fee. However, cost of shipping items to you will be deducted from the total of returned items.

Late or missing refunds (if applicable)

If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your bank account again. Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted.Next, contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us at support@nurturesoap.com.

Sale items (if applicable)

Only regular priced items may be refunded. Sale items or free samples cannot be refunded.

Exchanges (if applicable)

We only replace items if they are defective or damaged. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at support@nurturesoap.com and send your item to: 1370 Swan St., Huntington, IN, 46750, United States.

Orders & Shipping

We offer free shipping to 48 states with all orders over $30.00. Free shipping shipment methods are USPS First Class Mail for all orders under 14 ounces and USPS Priority Mail for all orders over 14 ounces. Selecting faster shipping options will not expedite your order in our warehouse. It will shorten time in transit only. To have your order shipped before others in queue we offer a rush shipping option.

We require a minimum order of $15. If you have any difficulty placing your order or do not wish to enter your credit card information online, you may pay by money order or call us at 260-200-1081 to place your order. We accept all major credit cards and PayPal payments.

You will be sent an email confirmation when an order is placed on our site. If you do not receive this email, please check your spam folder. Also check the address the shipment is being sent to. We only send to the address given to us when you place your order. If this address is incorrect please call us ASAP at 260-200-1081. When your order is shipped, you will receive a shipment confirmation email with a tracking number.

UPS Express options (2 day and overnight) do not deliver on weekends.

Choosing an express shipping option does not affect processing time. To put your order to the top of the packing list, choose Rush Shipping on the checkout page when placing your order.

UPS will not ship to PO boxes.

You have the option for Signed Delivery. To add signed delivery to your order, simply add it to your cart. Please choose this option if you would like to sign for your package upon delivery. Nurture Soap will not be held responsible for any lost or misdelivered items if this option is not chosen. Why? Carriers will not honor insurance claims on packages marked as delivered. Rather than raise our shipping rates to cover this expense, we give the customer the option of signed delivery. If you don't receive your package and the signed delivery option is chosen, we will replace your package immediately and file a claim with the carrier.

Our processing time is posted at the top of the page on every page on our site. To decrease processing time and put your order to the top of our shipping list, we offer Rush Shipping. To add rush shipping to your order, simply add the option to your cart.

I Didn't Receive My Package!

We will replace the package immediately if the signed delivery option was chosen at checkout.

Talk to the supervisor at your local post office if USPS was your chosen shipping method. They will be able to communicate with your mail carrier and look on the vehicles for any deliveries that were missed.

If you live in an apartment complex, check with the rental office. Sometimes deliveries will be made there.

If these steps don't result in finding your missing package, call USPS directly at 1 (800) 275-8777 or call UPS at 1-800-PICK UPS

Follow the prompts until you get to the prompt where you are asked for your tracking number. Press 1 for tracking a package or say "Tracking." Say “Representative” and you will be transferred to a representative.

If you feel your package has been stolen, you may file a police report on the missing package.

Privacy

When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address.

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, and other updates.

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.

Our store is hosted by Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored in Shopify’s data storage, databases, and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.

PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies with respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.

Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

Our store uses Google Analytics to help us learn about store visits and the pages being viewed.

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
